Best Hair Colouring Highlights near me in Albany, Australia

Hair highlights are sections of hair lightened or coloured differently to the base colour to create dimension and contrast. Traditional highlights use foils for precise, uniform results, while techniques like balayage create a more natural, blended look.

Highlights are permanent to the treated strands but regrowth typically becomes visible after 6–10 weeks. Balayage highlights grow out more naturally and may only need a refresh every 3–6 months.

Your highlights may start to dull after a couple of weeks, and by 4 weeks, you’ll probably begin to see your roots. To help maintain the shine and keep your hair in optimal condition, it’s recommended that you wash your it less frequently (1-3 times a week is enough); avoid products containing silicone, ammonia, and sulphates which dry and even break your hair; and protect your hair with a pre-wash treatment designed for colored hair. It’s a good idea to use a deeply nourishing hair conditioner, too, and avoid using heated styling products.

The lifespan of your highlights will vary according to the type of highlights you get, how well you take care of them, and your hair’s natural color. Treat them right and they’ll last 6-8 weeks.
